1After these things did Jesus manifest himself again to the disciples on the sea of Tiberias, and he did manifest himself thus:

2There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas who is called Didymus, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.

3Simon Peter saith to them, ‘I go away to fish;’ they say to him, ‘We go — we also — with thee;’ they went forth and entered into the boat immediately, and on that night they caught nothing.

4And morning being now come, Jesus stood at the shore, yet indeed the disciples did not know that it is Jesus;

5Jesus, therefore, saith to them, ‘Lads, have ye any meat?’

6they answered him, ‘No;’ and he said to them, ‘Cast the net at the right side of the boat, and ye shall find;’ they cast, therefore, and no longer were they able to draw it, from the multitude of the fishes.

13Jesus, therefore, doth come and take the bread and give to them, and the fish in like manner;

14this [is] now a third time Jesus was manifested to his disciples, having been raised from the dead.

16He saith to him again, a second time, ‘Simon, [son] of Jonas, dost thou love me?’ he saith to him, ‘Yes, Lord; thou hast known that I dearly love thee;’ he saith to him, ‘Tend my sheep.’

17He saith to him the third time, ‘Simon, [son] of Jonas, dost thou dearly love me?’ Peter was grieved that he said to him the third time, ‘Dost thou dearly love me?’ and he said to him, ‘Lord, thou hast known all things; thou dost know that I dearly love thee.’ Jesus saith to him, ‘Feed my sheep;
